Today, Congresswoman Doris Matsui (CA-06) issued the following statement on the 20th anniversary of the death of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin:
“Today, we remember and honor the life of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, who was tragically assassinated 20 years ago,” said Congresswoman Matsui.
“During his tenure as Prime Minister, Yitzhak Rabin was a courageous peacemaker. He approached his work with a sense of tolerance and respect, and his diplomacy has served, and will continue to serve, as a model as we work to stop violence and pursue peace.
